We received another good episode of Smackdown Live last night. The crowd was looking forward to the dream main event match. But Big Cass ruined things for them. It was not a bad thing though.
The creative team continued to keep him in the mix to prepare him for big things. The feud against Daniel Bryan looks to remain in the near future.
Interesting build to insert a cleared Big Cass into the mix involving Samoa Joe and Daniel Bryan tonight, must admit I was really looking forward to a singles option between Joe and Bryan tonight, Cass continues to be super comfortable on the mic #SDLive

Shinsuke Nakamura competed on Smackdown after the surprising opening segment. He received Tye Dillinger, as his opponent who returned to action after a long time. We have to admit he looked better than ever inside the ring.
It will be bad for him if this turns out to be just a one-off opportunity for him. Nakamura prevailing in the match was predictable. He needs to have the momentum for the upcoming title match.
Wow, New Day, Miz, Sheamus and Cesaro absolutly tore down the house tonight in Raleigh, awesome six man tag team match, they built up the crowd extremely well tonight leading to the finish #SDLive

The earlier mentioned dream match between Bryan vs Joe overshadowed the six-man tag team match.
But this match turned out to be the show-stealer of the night. The six men tore the house down to give a blockbuster match on Smackdown.
We expect nothing less when The Miz and New Day gets involved in a showdown like this.
Interesting approach to let Mandy Rose get in some serious offense on Asuka with a setup from Sonya Deville, Carmella was pretty entertaining on commentary tonight as well #SDLive

The dance-off between Lana and Naomi went down pretty much well. It was not a great thing to witness in the women’s revolution. But on a different note, it was a fresh thing for the fans.
Asuka vs Mandy Rose was also an interesting contest on Smackdown. Rose pulled off some big offenses against Asuka which was amazing to see. She looked string even after suffering the loss.
Awesome triple threat tonight, they did a really good job of balancing the offense from everyone avoiding dead spots, I really like the move going with Samoa Joe in this situation when I’m sure many expected Daniel Bryan to advance #SDLive

A triple threat match took place in the main event of Smackdown Live. It turned out to be a solid contest on the show. The participants managed to make up the absence of the dream singles contest.
The officials did a good job by letting Joe advance to the MITB ladder match. Bryan was the favourite to win the contest for sure. He will continue to be in a feud against Big Cass after this match.
Overall, a really good effort from #WWE and the blue brand, the action inside the ring was really solid tonight #SDLive
